cancelled class

There are few things greater on God's green earth for students -- nay, human beings -- than cancelled class. The outpouring of positive feeling and love that accompanies every cancelled class should no longer be ignored. I think it's time we begin advocating a federal 'Cancel Class for Cash' program, wherein teachers are given a small sum every time they cancel class (sums should work on a sliding scale depending on how much the teacher sucks, with more money going to the crappiest teachers). The resultant well-spring of happiness and good-feeling to be found in every college town across America would be well worth the price. George Bush are you listening? I know you never went to class; this is exactly the pet-project to place your legacy upon.

It should be pointed out while few things are better than cancelled class, there is one that springs immediately to mind: cancelled classes. That's right, I have 3 classes today and they are all cancelled. Requisite celebration forthcoming.

no, I didn't forget this was here

So obviously I've let this space fall into disrepair with my return to school. Mainly I stopped watching so many movies, but I also stopped being in extremely close proximity to an internet ready computer every time I watched one as well. I'm typing this from a computer lab on campus, as that stands as the only place I have to get online. But in an effort to hopefully prevent the continued neglect of my otherwise productive blog, I've decided to switch my goals. I will now be reviewing whatever I deem worthy of review -- the lunch I ate that day, a discussion in one of my classes, the persistent itch on my ankle. So to begin, here are a few reviews:

the new entryway to HSU campus

frankly, I'm a fan. I understand that there are critics, questioning the necessity of a $350k image make-over for a school trapped in a budget crisis, but those are the same critics that will criticize something regardless. Frankly, they should be thankful for being given another target for their unending negativity. But personally, I really like the gates. They give me something tangible to throw my empty beer cans at, and that's worth the money right there.

teaching plays to high school students

Personally I'm a fan of play-action, due to its intriguing deception and potential for large gains. But of course you need a good running game to even get this started. Otherwise, simple posts, curls, and out routes are a good start for the passing game, and you would probably want at least one counter and one draw in your running plays. Also, you should never forget that many games are won and lost in the special teams. Jeez, there's a lot to do.
